Yep, he's just brand new and thought he was hiding. He was a surprise and two weeks late.

Nikki it's just the dollar general add-enter your zip code and there should be a "pampers Swaddlers Allcounts, all sizes"...I got multiple boxes or 1s, 2s, and 3s!

I saw the diaper thing on FB, BUT I also saw that Walnart was NOT Going to honor it because it is not specific. Good luck ladies!! I hope you get them for that price.

Doctor said everything is ok. Visits every 2 weeks now. No protein in my urine although I gained 9 pounds in 3weeks, but it fluctuates so much.. i was 9 pounds less Friday. I swell and it's been really hot so I'm cutting the salt and see what happens. New BP meds seem to be working. There is lots of room to increase them as needed. Hopefully I can keep this little dude cooking for 9 more weeks. Or more!

2/3Walmarts honored for me! I have a lot of time on my hands to drive around though!! Lol!

hey gals! i swear i'm still around and reading
i went for my ~35 week appointment today. she did GBS and checked my cervix (wow, that is uncomfortable!). i'm 1 cm dilated. also, while she was measuring my belly (still a little bit ahead) it got all hard and i said something like, "he hates when such-and-such happens" and she was like, "yea, thats a contraction". oh! haha, who knew!?! So having nice strong BH's and a bit dilated, but she doesnt think i will go early or anything.
on a different note, i literally just cut my tongue on a granola bar and it's bleeding. weird. and i'm starving.

Many target and walmart stores aren't honoring that price match because it's against policy as the dg ad is for bags and not boxes. You may get lucky but I know my store and many others are refusing it.

Lux had her 2 week apt today. Though technically she's almost 3 weeks now. She's grown 1/2" and gained 1# 2oz! Next apt on August 12th for her shots ;( not looking forward to that one so much.

 

[Disneybaby26]

So glad little Lux is doing great Ashlee!

I'm torn-daycare called today and said they can take Makayla early, starting July 14th (she will be 13 weeks). I had originally planne on going back August 4th because she originally couldn't take her then. I guess one of her under 2s dads got laid off so she will have an open spot sooner. I haven't gotten paid since 6 weeks, so the financials alone make sense for me to go back ASAP. I feel like I'm ready, she's going to have to go eventually anyway and I love and miss my job...BUT I'm hesitant to commit and then have a meltdown...any advice/guidance from those of you that are back to work already?

Glad lux is doing so awesome.

 

[goldstns]

My Walmart and target wouldn't honor it

 

[Disneybaby26]

Ugh that stinks Nikki, sorry!!

 

[brunettebimbo]

The thought of going back to work is much worse than actually going back

 

[frsttimemama]

Happy 12 weeks BB!

Kara, such a hard choice! Best of luck. Mine will come down to financial stuff too. ughhh.

Ash, glad Lux is doing well!

afm, 79 days or less to go! I feel like crap. I thought allergies, but I think Uri. .. Emailing for a z-pak today. So tired and sore and stuffed up. She said I had sciatic pain and ligament pain where my legs connect. I'm waddling for sure. It's not so cute. Lol.

 

[Cowgirl07]

Happy 12 weeks Bb.
Sandy I'm sure your beautiful sorry about the allergies mine are on an upswing now that it stopped raining.
Afm had some cramping yesterday and I guess I might have od? At CD 12. Hmm. Oh well, I will be off to work shortly, with my estrogen in my pocket.

 

[TTCaWee1]

Mine wouldn't either.

Kara as hard as it was and still is, once I get busy then it takes my mind off. Plus I'm so much more excited to spend time with her when I get off. Not that I'm not already but it's different.

 

[Disneybaby26]

Sandy-I had that same pain too-it was awful! Be extra careful putting on pants and getting in and out of the bed/car, I REALLY aggravated mine a couple of times with those activities! Sit down the get dressed, swing and put weight on both legs at the same time when getting out of bed/car. Try to never put weight on only one leg at a time. It goes away immediately after birth, I was so scared it wouldn't!

Katrina-even if it was an early O, you're good and covered!!

 

[Disneybaby26]

Thanks girls-I know it won't be easy but it's inevitable. If doc says she's good to go immunization wise-I'm gonna go back the 14th, if not it will be the 21st. I'm fortunate to have had the amount of time I've had. She's super cuddly today (Sunshine is back on the App Rachel!! LOL) makes my heart melt. Leaving tomorrow morning and looking forward to a great first family vacation!

hello ladies. I'm back! Harper is just over a week old now.

It's been a heck of week. After Harper was born I got a spinal headache from my epidural. It was the worst thing i've ever experienced and i've never felt more worthless and helpless in my life. I couldn't even sit up so my husband had to do EVERYTHING. After two blood patches, we finally got it fixed and i'm just now catching up with spending time with my baby.

Atfer 18 hours in labor with no pain meds, we had to do a c section because her cord was around her neck and she would have never been able to come vaginally.

I am just smitten with her and am looking forward to spending the next 9 weeks with her.
